If you're buying a truck from a private seller or considering a secondhand option, check out our Used Dump Truck Loan Guide for key tips that help strengthen your application.
Most lenders require at least a 650 FICO score. If you’re unsure, check your score first. Our prequalification uses a soft pull, so you can check eligibility without affecting your credit.
Longevity helps prove stability. Lenders want to see that your business is established and profitable — ideally 2+ years in operation.
We don’t require tax returns. But we do need 3 months of business bank statements to show consistent income. Make sure your balances and deposits reflect healthy activity.
Include a listing or invoice for the dump truck you want to finance. It helps us structure the loan and confirm the equipment value — whether from a dealer, auction, or private party.
Banks often say no simply because they don’t understand your business. At TruckLenders USA, we only finance vocational vehicles — and we’ve been doing it for over 20 years.

Can I finance a dump truck from Facebook Marketplace or a private seller?
Yes — we finance private party purchases. All we need is a valid invoice or listing and seller contact info.
Do I need a CDL to qualify for financing?
Not necessarily. CDL requirements depend on the truck’s class and your location. For financing, we look at credit, business history, and cash flow.
What dump trucks qualify for 0% down?
Well-maintained trucks under 10 years old with lower mileage (under 250,000) are most likely to qualify — especially if your credit is 675+.
